Giorgio Armani has launched its Rouge Ecstasy CC Lipstick, the first CC lipstick to hit the market. Colour & Care in one.

Check out the cool and inspiring commercial! I’ve been eyeing these, but the color selection is so broad I start to hyperventilate when I go to the counter (because I don’t know where to start swatching)!

I find that the most important part of my makeup is that my skin breathes. I never have a mask on, my makeup moves during the day, it changes. I don’t strive for the “perfection” that advertisement shows us, I always look at people.

I love how models work with their own beauty, their natural beauty. Skintone, haircolour, body shape, face features.. everything is well thought out. But so effortlessly.

“Dior has unveiled a host of new products for 2013:
DiorShow Iconic Overcurl mascara will launch globally in February. The launch will be accompanied by DiorShow’s first line of mono eyeshadows in 18 bright, arty shades.
Dior Addict Gloss will replace the Dior Addict Ultragloss line in March worldwide, with a range of 43 shades.
Capture Totale skin care line line will be renewed in January. But in March of 2013 the brand is adding a new flanker to the Dior Homme franchise, Dior Homme Cologne, and new one for Miss Dior together with new Miss Dior body-care line.”

The consistency is a thick gel texture that takes a while to sink into your skin. If applied thicker it does get quite sticky.

What do I think of the product?

I’ve tried different eye creams but always returned to this one. I guess it has to do with the sophisticated jar, the luxurious scent and the rich texture. When I use it I feel like I’m pampering my skin.

Putting the shallow parts aside, I did feel and see a difference when using this continuously. My otherwise very dry under eye skin suddenly felt plump (no under eye bags!) and rejuvenated. I would recommend this to anyone with normal/slightly dry to oily skin. If you have severe dryness with flaking I would suggest going for something a bit richer and emollient in texture. This combined with my Ole Henriksen Truth Eye Peelwas the perfect combination. My skin is brightened, fresh and looks “younger”. I used to have milia near the inner corners of my eyes, those are practically gone by now (this I think has to do more with using the Eye Peel).
